This beginner's guide offers a first glimpse into the world of mollusks.
In this addition to the acclaimed About... series, educator and author Cathryn Sill uses simple, easy-to-understand language to teach children what mollusks are, how they look, how they move, what they eat, and where they live. With beautifully detailed, realistic paintings, noted wildlife illustrator John Sill introduces readers to a variety of mollusks - from the small Garden Snail to the Giant Pacific Octopus. An afterword provides details on the animals featured and inspires young readers to learn more.
